Of course not, so why is that applicable here? This is putting undue burden of testing on aftermarket manufacturers. They're not huge companies with deep R&D pockets, they're limited on what they can test, and likely just didn't see this kind of failure in testing because they have limited sample sizing.
Additionally, we don't actually have a proper idea of how prevalent this problem actually is. People who have had no issues with the OD pump likely don't bother saying anything.

First, Pure Turbo doesn't increase boost and can run on stock boost.... Your Turner/tune increase boost. You can increase boost on stock turbo and break chargepipe and it is not Pure Turbo but a known issue that stock charge pipe can't handle high boost. And Pure Turbo doesn't break any part that is directly connected to it.
Now back to point... Like I said earlier... if Helix OD is dependent on vacumm pump than the testing should have included vacumm pump and stress checked that.
Just like a strut and spring go together and test together for reliability. They don't just make sure strut is good and forget about the spring.
Also, if they don't have huge pockets for R&D than why they charging $850 dollar for such a product? I am assuming huge R&D cost is added there. Plus, you are basically saying if putting Helix OD in your car blow up your engine you would be okay with it. Why? Because, "they're limited on what they can test, and likely just didn't see this kind of failure in testing because they have limited sample sizing." Lol... good one.
